Team Penske’s Will Power was the fastest in the two-hour morning session at the Milwaukee Mile, clocking 161.521mph to give the new hybrid powertrains a proper workout. In the early afternoon outing, teammate Josef Newgarden took the top spot with 160.759mph, making it a Penske 1-2-3. Power mentioned the challenge of passing due to the hard compound tire and difficulty in finding the right car balance. Graham Rahal admitted the challenge of manipulating the energy recovery systems and found it a busy experience on a quick lap. The returning David Malukas impressed by finishing fifth overall in the morning and seventh in the afternoon tests. IndyCar simulated various competition scenarios to test the energy recovery systems until rain disrupted the proceedings around 3:45 pm local time.
